## **BRITISH DIETETIC GENERAL & EDUCATION TRUST** 

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT** 

## _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 29 FEBRUARY 2024**_ 

The Trustees submit their annual report and the unaudited financial statements of British Dietetic Association General & Education Trust (the charity) for the year ended 29th February 2024. The Trustees confirm that the annual report and financial statements of the charity comply with current statutory requirements, the requirements of the charity's governing document and the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP), applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019). 

## **Trustees responsibilities** 

The trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the charity for that year. 

In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP; 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation. 

The trustees are responsible for keeping sufficient accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

## **Objectives and activities** 

## **GRANTS, AWARDS AND PRIZES POLICY** 

The Trustees have, over the years, established a policy on making grants, awards and prizes, by practice, precedents and decisions in principle. This complies with the requirements of the rules and legislation that governs Charities, requiring a formal policy which codifies those decisions.

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT  (CONTINUED)** 

## _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 29 FEBRUARY 2024**_ 

## **REVIEW OF ACTIVITIES** 

## **Elsie Widdowson Lecture** 

The Trustees have continued to support the annual Lecture to commemorate the late Dr Elsie Widdowson who was one of the Twentieth Century's most important figures in the field of nutrition and dietetics. 

The 2021/22 Elsie Widdowson Lecturer was Jacqueline Walker MSc BSc who gave the Lecture at The British Dietetic Association's BDA Annual General Meeting on ‘A public health approach to Dietetics’. 

## **Awards and Grants** 

The Trustees supported a number of activities during the year, approving new grants and awards. 

All three of the GET Awards were awarded in 2023. The winner of the Rose Simmonds Memorial Fund Award was Sally Abbott for a published piece of work in a peer reviewed journal for ‘Variation and outcomes of liverreducing dietary regimens before bariatric surgery: A national retrospective cohort study’. 

The Elizabeth Washington Award was awarded to Shawn McLaren for a published/presented educational work for the Nutrition and Global Health textbook. 

The winner of the Dame Barbara Clayton Award was awarded jointly to Dr Emma Parsons and Irantzu ArreguiFresneda for Dietetic Student Mealtime Assistants; Enhancing practice education and quality of care 

The Trustees considered 18 grant applications for development, research or educational activities in 2023/24. The Trustees approved funding for 6 grants and made provisional decisions which may lead to additional applications being funded in due course. Overall, the Trustees made available in excess of £164,000. 

The Trustees also paid out close to £8,000 to support dietitians to attend conferences to promote the science and practice of dietetics. 

## **Investment policy and performance** 

The Trustees review the investment and allocation policies annually, both to reassess the reasons for keeping reserves and to ensure that appropriate levels are maintained. An Investment Policy has also been drawn up, to structure the Trust's assets. The Trustees agree a range of parameters, within which the portfolio can be adapted to meet the changing circumstances of the markets. The parameters are reviewed on a regular basis, or whenever a significant event occurs. The Trustees reviewed the investment portfolio during 2023/24 but made no major adjustments in the investment funds. 

The Trustees have agreed a socially responsible investment policy and the GET funds are invested accordingly. 

The Trustees appointed Cazenove Charities to manage the Trust Fund’s investments from 2017 onwards. 

## **Financial review** 

## **GOING CONCERN** 

After making appropriate enquiries, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. Further details regarding the adoption of the going concern basis can be found in the Accounting Policies.

**BRITISH DIETETIC GENERAL & EDUCATION TRUST** 

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT  (CONTINUED)** 

## _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 29 FEBRUARY 2024**_ 

## **RESERVES POLICY** 

The Trust Deed gives the Trustees the power "to accumulate income for so long as may be permitted by law or invest the same or apply the same as income in any subsequent year". The Trustees hold reserves in the form of a portfolio of investments and deposit accounts. 

There are three funds, a General Fund and two Designated Funds: the Rose Simmonds Memorial Fund; and the Elizabeth Washington Fund. There is also an annual award entitled the Dame Barbara Clayton Award for Innovation in Dietetic Practice which was created to recognise the contribution of Dame Barbara to the BDA. The annual accounts of the Trust give the level of reserves they are holding on the last day of the relevant financial year to which those accounts relate. 

The Trustees' Policy on reserves states that: 

"The reserves are held: 

- in order to create an income which the Trustees make available to applicants for grants for dietetic research and for funding short or modular training in research for dietitians; 

- to provide for larger sums, advanced from time to time in the form of grants or repayable grants, to support specific projects; and 

- to provide an emergency reserve from which work to sustain core support for the science of dietetics could be funded in the event of the failure of The British Dietetic Association.” 

The Trustees have calculated the potential impact for the third bullet point above and have identified a need to consider around £750,000 from the free reserves for this contingency. However, to satisfy the first two bullet points and to provide a reasonable income for on-going support to grant requests, the total reserves should be higher than this amount alone. The Trustees consider that the present level of reserves is sufficient to meet the needs set out above. 

The Trust's expenditure policy is based on making appropriate use of its existing funds. In the event that part of the income arising from the funds in any one year is not spent on grants or projects, owing to an absence of applications of a sufficiently high standard, the unspent amount will ordinarily be added to the Trust's reserves. Given the sums involved, this practice is unlikely to result in reserves that are too high for the Trust's needs. Conversely, given the nature of the Trust's commitments, a substantial part of the reserves could be used at any point without risking insolvency or seriously disrupting its work. 

## **Current Reserves** 

At the end of the financial year 2023/24 the BDA GET General Fund unrestricted reserves totalled £1,763,557 (£1,856,914 for 2022/23) and the designated funds totalled £150,522 (£103,570 for 2022/23) made up of grants approved within the year but unspent at the end of the year. This gave an overall total of £1,914,079 (£1,960,484 in 2022/23).

**BRITISH DIETETIC GENERAL & EDUCATION TRUST** 

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT  (CONTINUED)** 

## _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 29 FEBRUARY 2024**_ 

## **Structure, governance and management** 

## **CONSTITUTION** 

There have been no changes in the objectives since the last annual report. 

The trustees who served during the year and up to the date of signature of the financial statements were: Caroline Bovey, Chairman (Resigned 17 October 2024) Linda Wedlake (Resigned 1 April 2024) Angela Madden Michelle Rae Samantha Peters (Resigned 19 September 2023) Sarb Bajwa (Appointed 19 September 2023 and resigned 1 June 2024) Elaine Buckley (Appointed 1 September 2024) Susan Price (Appointed 17 October 2024) Lorraine Watson (Appointed 1 November 2024) Sophie Davies (Appointed 1 November 2024) 

## **METHOD OF APPOINTMENT OR ELECTION OF TRUSTEES** 

The management of the charity is the responsibility of the Trustees who are elected and co opted under the terms of the Trust deed. Since the last annual report the Trustees agreed a policy of co-opting the immediate past Chair of the Trustees onto the Board as an observer. This is to ensure consistency of governance and also to ensure the expertise developed by their Chair over their two-year term is not lost. While the immediate past Chair will not be a full Trustee they will fully participate and contribute to decision making. 

## **RISK MANAGEMENT** 

The major risks to which the Charity is exposed have been identified by the Trustees. Systems are in place to eliminate or diminish these risks. A Risk Register is in place and is updated annually. The Trustees developed a service level agreement with the BDA, to clarify the level of support from the BDA and the relationship between the two bodies. The Trustees meet quarterly, with half of the meetings by teleconference and half face to face, to keep operational costs to a minimum. This allows for more timely decisions on grant applications. The Trustees have trialed different methods of hearing directly from grant applicants, by person and by telephone, to ensure they are fully informed of all relevant matters before making a decision on an application. 

The company's current policy concerning the payment of trade creditors is to: 

- settle the terms of payment with suppliers when agreeing the terms of each transaction; 

- ensure that suppliers are made aware of the terms of payment by inclusion of the relevant terms in contracts; and 

- pay in accordance with the company's contractual and other legal obligations. 

The trustees' report was approved by the Board of Trustees.

As the trustees of the charity you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act).

- 2 the financial statements do not accord with those records; or 

- 3 the financial statements do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirementthat the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.

The charity has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities applying FRS 102 Update Bulletin 1 not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows. 

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £. 

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below. 

## **1.2 Charitable funds** 

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives. 

Designated funds comprise funds which have been set aside at the discretion of the trustees for specific purposes. The purposes and uses of the designated funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements. 

Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors or grantors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements. 

## **1.3 Income** 

Income is recognised when the charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received. 

Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount.

## _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 29 FEBRUARY 2024**_ 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

## **(Continued)** 

## **1.4 Expenditure** 

Expenditure is included on an accruals basis. 

Grants payable are charged in the year when the offer is conveyed to the recipient except in those cases where the offer is conditional, such grants being recognised as expenditure when the conditions attaching are fulfilled. 

Management and administration comprises costs for the running of the charity itself as an organisation. 

Governance costs are those incurred in connection with administration of the charity and compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements. 

## **1.5 Fixed asset investments** 

Fixed asset investments are initially measured at transaction price excluding transaction costs, and are subsequently measured at fair value at each reporting date.  Changes in fair value are recognised in net income/(expenditure) for the year. Transaction costs are expensed as incurred. 

## **1.6 Financial instruments** 

The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments. 

Financial instruments are recognised in the charity's balance sheet when the charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. 

Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. 

## _**Basic financial assets**_ 

Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.

## _**Basic financial liabilities**_ 

Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised. 

Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method. 

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. 

## _**Derecognition of financial liabilities**_ 

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the charity’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.
